Coherent Heterodyne OCDMA with Sourceless and Colorless Receivers

چکیده
We present a new, coherent, heterodyne OCDMA scheme that conveys the signal and reference to each user in a multiple access network via one fiber. The receiver is sourceless and colorless. Bit error rate performance is characterized as a function of system parameters under various conditions.

Heterodyne detection using spectral line pairing for spectral phase encoding optical code division multiple access and dynamic dispersion compensation.
A novel coherent optical code-division multiple access (OCDMA) scheme is proposed that uses spectral line pairing to generate signals suitable for heterodyne decoding. Both signal and local reference are transmitted via a single optical fiber and a simple balanced receiver performs sourceless heterodyne detection, canceling speckle noise and multiple-access interference (MAI). To validate the i...
متن کاملImprovement of quasi-optimum quantum receiver for M-ary PSK coherent-state signals
When the average number of photons of the signals is large, quasi-optimum quantum receivers proposed in Refs.[1, 2, 3] approach optimum quantum receivers in performance. However when signals are very weak, they perform worse than homodyne or heterodyne receivers. We describe improvements in quasi-optimum quantum receivers for M -ary phase shift keying coherent-state signals and show that the im...

A full analysis of the combined effects of all the noise sources of optical heterodyne receiver and the interaction between the competing control parameters of the receiver detector and pre-amplifier will be presented. This analysis provides the mean for true optimization of the coherent lidar receiver. The significance of the optimization of heterodyne receiver is shown for 2-micron coherent l...

This paper evaluates the coherent optical code-division multiple-access (OCDMA) techniques and examines the overall system performance in terms of signalto-noise ratio (SNR) penalty as a function of simultaneous users accommodated to maintain an appropriate value of the bit-error rate (BER) for homodyne and heterodyne detections. As spreading codes, the proposed structures are utilizing a recen...
متن کاملThe design and sensitivity of microwave frequency optical heterodyne receivers
Recent advances in high speed photodetector and microwave receiver technology make microwave frequency optical heterodyning an attractive approach for the detection of a number of coherent Raman and Brillouin scattering experiments. We have therefore analyzed the sensitivity of microwave frequency optical heterodyne receivers. Experimental tests on a visible wavelength receiver operating at 13....
